If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies.Succeed anyway.The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyway. The biggest person with the biggest ideas can be shot downby the smallest person with the smallest mind. Think big anyway.

Give the world the best you have and you might get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.
